*Short romance story, I'm guess it's cliche. Please don't copy and please read and review, summary under :)*
Summary: Jonah Grey is really getting on my nerves. Everyday at lunch he keeps on throwing kendi to my spot at the mesa with my friends. Why? He’s trying to aggravate me…or maybe not.
+
“He’s doing it again! Why can’t he stop!” I whined, swatting away a kendi bar.
“You should just talk to him, that’s all he wants.” Vivian, my best friend since pre-k suggested.
I scoffed. “All he wants is another reason to annoy me.”
Vivian glanced at me carefully. “You know he feels sorry.”
“Just drop it, okay.” I said, tiredly, rubbing my temples.
You see, over a few weeks ago, Jonah and I started dating, we were close mga kaibigan and we felt there was more. But during our nakaraan time of us being ‘together’ I caught Jonah halik another girl.
Kissing! Another! Girl!
Who happened to be a person I despised and made my life a living hell since middle school. So after that I broke up with Jonah as mga kaibigan and madami than friends.
He keeps on telling me that he’s sorry, that it didn’t mean anything, that she kissed him. But he kissed her back, he betrayed me, and I can’t see anything repairing between us too, I’m just done.
+
I walked to class and sat at my normal seat, susunod to Jessica, my preppy other friend in my group of friends. But don’t let her preppy-preppy I’m a goody two shoes appearance fool you, she can be pretty wild and she doesn’t like school that much.
As for me, I like school, I know totally nerdy and all, but I’m just fascinated here. We learn new things and make new friends, I owe school a lot, it’s a refreshing distraction. That is, if Jonah Grey didn’t exist.
“Hey nerdy boo!” Jessica squealed, hugging me.
“Hey preppy poo!” I squealed just as enthusiastically hugging her back.
“So did you hear?” Jessica said, while putting her lip gloss on, we were early and the kampanilya wouldn’t ring for about four minutes, so we had time.
“Hear what?” I asked. Jessica was the gossip one in our group, she knew everything and everyone that went around this school.
“That were having a pop quiz?” She raised an eyebrow at me.
I groaned. “How did you know?”
“Nothing gets past me,” Jessica sinabi mysteriously, winking at me. She turned her head and her grin dimmed a little. “Jerk coming this way.”
I turned my head, seeing no other than Jonah walk into class. His eyes landed on me, and we just stared at each other for a few seconds, before the kampanilya rung and he quickly walked to his seat.
Jessica rolled her eyes. “When is he ever gonna get it through his head, poor thing still thinks he has a chance.”
When she looked pointedly at me, I looked away, squirming uncomfortably. I didn’t like that look in her eye, it was one of annoyance and jealousy. Jessica may be the popular one in our little group, but she was also lonely, her relationships have never ended well, and she always has crushes on any guy who lands on her eye, convinced that he’s ‘the one’. But there always not, Jessica either gets used or cheated on.
But that’s because she always picks the wrong guy, we warn her but she doesn’t listen. So of course she would be jealous of an ex-boyfriend who’s determined to win me back.
Classes went sa pamamagitan ng in a blur and then it was time to head home. But as I was making my way to my bus an arm grabbed. Startled I turned and faced my attacker, ready to scream but I instantly scowled.
“What do you want?”
Jonah rolled his eyes. “You already know what I want, or madami accurately who I want.”
I felt my cheeks heat up as I looked away from his intense gaze. “Let me rephrase that, what are you doing?”
“I just needed to talk to you,” he explained. “But gosh woman! You ilipat fast, and I can’t keep up all the time, I had to get your attention.”
“By pretending to attack me!” I yelled incredulously.
“It got your attention didn’t it?”
Jonah went on ignoring my fiery glare, which wasn’t working it’s looks can kill magic. “I just…wanted to tell you I’m sorry-”
“You already sinabi this a million times!”
“Well I’m saying it again!” He yelled, glaring at me, but continued in a much softer voice. “Just let me finish, okay?”
I crossed my arms, but didn’t say anything.
“I messed up big time, Fawn,” he paused, and I felt the usual tingly sensation when he sinabi my name. “I know I kissed her back, it was wrong, but it really didn’t mean anything. I pag-ibig you! Not her! Look, I’m not asking you to get back with me, I just need to know you forgive me.”
“I’ve already said-”
“But did you really mean it? Were not mga kaibigan anymore, we barely talk anymore, and you can barely look me in the eye.”
“Jonah, I don’t think I can.” I say, quietly, feeling tears pool my eyes.
“I’m not rushing you,” he whispered, tucking a lock of my hair behind my ear. “But please tell me what your answer is at lunch.”
“Lunch? What does lunch have to do with any of this?”
“You’ll know at lunch.”
With that he lightly brushed his lips on mine, and swiftly turned away, heading off in the direction I assumed he came from.
+
“Then he just kissed me, and walked away!”
“Interesting…” Jason, my adopted brother sinabi after I told him everything that happened, rubbing his chin, eyes scrunched adorably up in thought.
“What am I going to do Jay? I mean, I want to forgive him, give us another try, but…”
“But what?” Jason asked patiently, as if he was a psychiatrist and I, his patient.
“I’m afraid if I let him back in my life, he’ll screw up again, I don’t thing anything can be repaired between us. Do you?”
“You say every single lunch time he throws tsokolate bars at you, right?” He continued when I nodded. “Well, what if that tsokolate bar symbolizes your relationship?”
I gave him a blank look.
Jason rolled his eyes. “The tsokolate bar, is like your relationship, which is now up in the air falling ready to hit the ground and break and be gone forever. What if he wants you to pick that tsokolate bar up, as your way of saying ‘I forgive you, let’s start over’.”
“Do you really think so?”
Jason shrugged. “Makes the most sense.”
“Is it worth a try?”
“It is, Fawn, take a risk.”
I grinned at him. “You should look into becoming a psychiatrist, your really good.”
Jason wrinkled his nose. “And listen to people’s problems when I have my own, no way, I’m only doing this because I pag-ibig you sis.”
I hugged him hard. “I pag-ibig you too buddy."

The weekend passed sa pamamagitan ng quickly, and Monday rolled over soon and lunch came even faster. My puso pounded as I saw Jonah who was busy talking to his cronies.
“I think it’s time,” I tell Vivian and Jessica, who nod at me encouraged. We get our pagkain and the time for kendi throwing comes, I’m impatient and occasionally look to his table.
But I soon get tired of turning my head, so I paid attention to my mga kaibigan and ate my lunch. As if rehearsed a kendi bar soars through the air, landing right in my tray of delicious food. Normally, I would’ve been angry at a good meal ruined. But today, I smile as I pick the kendi bar up, and hold it in the air.

It's sad
It's the truth
Fighting through what it is
But I'll be stronger
I've gone through
Mounds of pain
I've been through
The deepest waters
Nobody can change my past
It's the truth, and it changed me
Sad to even hear the truth
Sad to...say the truth
Reality's always sad
And no one's gonna escape it.
It's how I became who I am today
It's how I didn't brag.
Why does this have to happen?
Why did it have to end?
Why does the world have to be so confusing?
Why did the fun have to end?
The world's just a crazy place
And no one's gonna stop that thought
Cause I'm broken for good...
Because of...the truth.
It's the truth

Tell me darling why you cry,
Your tears stain the kama you lay upon
Could it be you miss the ones you clung to so tight,
Nothing but a scared little fawn
The flames burnt away your past and future,
The hate did nothing but balance your grief
What now? That’s presents question,
Something so fragile like a branch being clung to sa pamamagitan ng a leaf
Where is your mother little dove?
What happened to those loving others who filled your empty nest?
How many word of the world can you rhyme with love?
Perhaps someday we will know with, proper care and rest
When pursuing dreams take chances and strive for nothing less than best
Then only then can you be sure you’ve completed life’s most demanding quest
Your tears stain the kama you lay upon
Could it be you miss the ones you clung to so tight,
Nothing but a scared little fawn
The flames burnt away your past and future,
The hate did nothing but balance your grief
What now? That’s presents question,
Something so fragile like a branch being clung to sa pamamagitan ng a leaf
Where is your mother little dove?
What happened to those loving others who filled your empty nest?
How many word of the world can you rhyme with love?
Perhaps someday we will know with, proper care and rest
When pursuing dreams take chances and strive for nothing less than best
Then only then can you be sure you’ve completed life’s most demanding quest
Soar, soar
Soar beyond your wildest dreams.....
There's no limit
On how much you can soar
No one can
Break your wings and kill you
Soar for the skies,
Don't let the feelin go
Just soar, soar like never before
No one's gonna stop you
From believin
There wasn't a time
When nobody could never soar
But there was a time
When people never believed
And tomorrow
Isn't the araw to fall
And nobody's gonna push you down
Oh almighty eagle
We're gonna be the powerful eagles
We're not gonna let anyone
Be our ruler,
We're not anyone's slave
Almighty eagle
Oh soar, soar towards the sky's height
And soar toward your dream
Let nothing keep you away
Almighty eagle
Soar beyond your wildest dreams
And we're gonna fly tonight
Let nobody keep us down.
Life can be hard. Especially for me, Lily West, your almost-average 16-year-old girl. Most people think it's weird I'm bald. Others think I'm going to die. Then there's the occasional person who tries to take pity upon me. I'd rather they not, because some say it like I'm a helpless little pagong on its back. Sometimes I wish I die already, and sometimes I wish that I was a completely different person. Yes, it's tough having cancer. I just wish that they would respect me for a person instead of a helpless little bug.
I stood sa pamamagitan ng you,
Ever so proudly,
In the darkness of war,
Never betraying you,
Always sa pamamagitan ng your side.
I protected you,
Never let you down when
Things got rough,
I stood sa pamamagitan ng you
Through araw and night,
Summer and winter.
Stand sa pamamagitan ng me now,
Be my loyal friend,
Never falter when the Fuhrer
Shoots his nasty gaze down at you.
Be strong,
My faithful friend.
Be strong,
And protect me from the evils
Of the world.
Be strong,
Never falter,
And always have courage.
Go now, my faithful friend.
Run free.
